BXBX NOVEL Chapter 354 Cultivation Is The Answer
That would explain how it received all this damage and didn’t crumble or even crack. If this shield was an artefact, then it might have a formidable source of energy or it could have another ability; damage absorption.
I had a skill that could do something like that. Of course my shield skill could only send half of the damage received back after absorbing it.
So this shield might also work in a similar way, more advanced than my shield skill.
To take this shield down, attacking it wouldn’t do any harm. I had to find that bastard and start aiming at him.
He didn’t appear at all, making me feel he must have listened to the story of that paragon from before.
But as the shield was active in such a way, that meant that dude wasn’t that far away, right?
I just hoped he wouldn’t have another weapon up his sleeve. After all, when I fought that paragon before, he had that damn suit that protected him for a long time against my attacks.
Of course I was greatly limited in using my power, but that didn’t mean that suit was half bad as well.
And that pillar I got must have come from that paragon. So paragons would have, at least, two artefact grade items up their sleeves.
That shield was one, and that portal might be the second. However I knew portals weren’t that special at all. So the odds of that portal being a formidable artefact was so slim anyway.
“Just don’t be a concealment item,” I muttered to myself, just hoping that the artefact would be anything but an item for hiding.
Or else finding him would be impossible in this way.
“If I couldn’t find him, what other options do I have here?”
In fact it was none.
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
Just as my boys were hitting everywhere I pointed at without any success in catching the tail of that bastard, another group of gigantic arrows fell and surrounded me.
This time their number was double! And they surrounded another mile around the first layer of arrows. With this I was trapped in a double layer, two miles thick.
Damn! What was that bastard trying to do here?
In the next few minutes I got the answer. The two layers added more pressure over my chariot. It wasn’t enough to break my shield, but it started to consume the stored energy at a fast pace.
And all the attacks coming out had to travel for a longer time than before. Each attack took almost a couple of minutes. Not to mention a few of the spearhead beams began to shatter under such pressure.
“This can’t go on,” I saw more weapons coming out from that damn portal. If the third layer was launched, I was sure that many of the spearhead beams of light would be destroyed.
So far these arrows didn’t affect the spearhead advantage much. But it was threatened to be shattered soon.
“What should I do?” I looked over the direction of the city. Things were still under control here. “Should I ask them to use this chance and retreat?”
It was a viable option in my eyes. I tried before to do this yet failed. And now I got a golden chance to let them run away as far as possible.
This would also help in focusing the entire army here over me. With the presence of those arrows, I knew I was like a sitting duck.
But even with me getting trapped, not a single force dared to come and hit me. It looked like this weapon didn’t differentiate between foes and allies.
Before I could make up my mind, I got an unexpected message at this moment.
[A god who just joined your channel sends you this message in private]
[That god says that you have a chance to turn tables around if you used your cultivation]
[He says that your cultivation is the only option you have here]
“My cultivation? How so?!!” He was like giving me a vague answer to my question. In fact I totally forgot about them and only thought about lady green nymphs and our weapon deal.
She was still busy finalising and getting my weapons. I thought this wouldn’t take much time but it seemed I thought wrong.
Unlike what I expected, that god sent me other messages.
[That god says that your cultivation is special. If you want, he has a detailed road map for an interesting type of cultivation provided that you honour your words]
“You want me to accept you as a supporting god? Which shrine do you belong to?”
[He says he is from the wisdom shrine, human race, another human race than the one here on Earth]
My eyes flashed in realisation. “Are you perhaps a god of the world these humans came from?”
[He says these humans came from five different worlds that humans lost in. the armies you just fought so far are the tip of a gigantic iceberg]
“Damn!” I sucked in a cold air of breath. “So there are more yet to come? Damn that bastard!”
[He says you don’t have much time left. Either you start now or never]
“Hmm… I agree then,” I didn’t find any problem in accepting the blessing of another human race god. He was a god of a world that humans lost the apocalypse at.
And he wanted revenge. I could totally understand his desire, and I was also supporting this.
“Send over that idea of yours and if it’s feasible and effective in this battle, you are going to be my future god.”
[He says he will send it to you now. His name is Rotan, please remember that]
[Here is what he sent over: He says the first step you have to do is to have a higher form of human souls. He knew human souls can’t be stored as they are considered low class compared to other races. Also it falls under the same class as your soul. So your first step is to store human souls]
